Two Native American (Tewa) men pose for portrait (standing) on a woven blanket at Santa Clara Pueblo, New Mexico. They stand on either side of a double headed drum and a wide brimmed hat, Pedro Cajete wears moccasins, beaded leggings, a long breechcloth, a long printed shirt, a hair pipe choker, and beaded fur pelts covering braided hair. Possibly Anacito wears beaded moccasins and leggings, a long breechcloth, a light shirt, a hair pipe choker, possibly a metal brooch, and scarves covering braided hair. Two painted animal skin shields with cloth borders and possibly a feather headress hang on the adobe wall behind the two men.
